The longest journey to the best maguro sushi
One of the places we were recommended to visit was the Tsukiji fish market. It's where the fish auction is held lined with restaurants that serve this fresh catch. Normally from Urawa it would be a 45 minute (at the most) drive. For some reason with traffic, rain and who knows why, the journey took 3 hours. Pastor Talo and his wife Nori used the GPS to find alternate routes which led us through the smallest streets that looked like walking alleys. How in the world did the minivan we were in fit in those narrow roads - I have no clue. We were almost going to give up when Pastor Talo said it's only 5 kilometers away - we can make it. What was worse what the fact we needed to be at the conference by 12 noon. In the van were all the conference speakers. It was 11 am when we finally reached our destination. God was so good to lead us to a restaurant with western toilets (we had to go really badly) and the best maguro sushi we've ever tasted. It was different grades of fish and it was literally the best ... even compared to Hawaii. No comparison. By the grace of God we made it to the conference at exactly 12 noon.
